Kindergarten Room: 104

About Me

I was born and raised in Boise, Idaho and I am the oldest of FOUR! I have three younger sisters, Stefani, Shellee, and Shari. When I graduated from High School, I moved to Provo, Utah to attend Brigham Young University (BYU). After a 6-month Study Abroad, I majored in Early Childhood and Elementary Education and I couldn’t wait to start teaching!I’ve taught 16 years of 1st Grade, 4 years of AM/PM Kindergarten (half day kindergarten) and 5 years of Full Day Kindergarten. I’ve loved teaching both grades but Kindergarten is close to my heart! I moved to Arizona a year ago! I’ll admit, it gets a little toasty outside but I fell in love with Arizona 5 years ago when I visited for the first time! I am so grateful to be teaching here at Finley Farms!
I have two of the best girls in the world that call me mom. BreElle, my oldest is 22, graduated from BYU with a degree in Early Childhood Education, and will beteaching3rd grade in Utah! She’s so excited! Her husband Riley grew up right here in Gilbert! My sweet baby girl, Sydney is 12, almost 13, and will be starting 7th Grade at Greenfield Junior High. I also have 2 sweet puppies - Tallulah Belle (Lulu) a Chihuahua and Gryffindor Potter (Gryffin) a Chion (Chihuahua/Papillon).

I am so excited to be your teacher and for you to be part of the AWESOME class we have in Room 104. This is going to be a FANTASTIC year!
